MDT CKYE-POD GEN3 Single Pull Bipod

Built for Speed and Precision

The CKYE-POD has established itself as one of the most adaptable premium bipods available for precision rifle competition.

With GEN3, MDT has refined virtually every area that matters.

The Single Pull has been purpose-built for shooters who need:

✔ Rapid deployment

✔ Exceptional rigidity

✔ Single-handed adjustment

✔ Multiple leg splay positions

✔ Extensive cant capability

✔ Fast ARCA/Picatinny attachment

✔ Compact dimensions

✔ Field-serviceable construction

The result is a bipod designed to minimise wasted movement and get the rifle stable as quickly as possible.

For PRS and match shooting, where seconds spent adjusting equipment are seconds lost from the stage, that matters.

What’s New With GEN3?

MDT didn’t simply update the appearance of the CKYE-POD.

The GEN3 platform has been redesigned around smoother operation, tighter lock-up and faster manipulation.

Major improvements include:

Larger Controls

Larger tactile knobs and buttons make the bipod easier to index and manipulate quickly.

Locking Legs

The legs now lock securely in the stowed position, helping prevent accidental deployment when moving between positions.

Machined Tactile Texture

Texture is machined directly into the legs, latches and controls rather than relying on an applied surface treatment.

Slimmer Profile

Reduced bulk creates a cleaner profile with fewer snag points.

Increased Rigidity

Tighter construction reduces unwanted play and rattling, helping the rifle recoil consistently.

Easy Leg Removal

Individual legs can be quickly removed for cleaning and maintenance.

Improved Mounting System

The new AP Throw Lever Head provides fast compatibility with both ARCA and Picatinny rails.

GEN3 takes the versatility that made the CKYE-POD popular and makes the entire system faster, cleaner and more refined.

Single Pull – The Compact CKYE-POD

The Single Pull configuration offers an adjustment range of:

6″ – 15″

or approximately:

158mm – 399mm

This gives the shooter substantial height adjustment while maintaining a compact overall package.

The Single Pull is particularly well suited to:

✔ Prone shooting

✔ Barricades

✔ Rooftop stages

✔ Low positional shooting

✔ Uneven terrain

✔ Field shooting

✔ PRS competition

Compared with the taller Double Pull and Triple Pull CKYE-POD variants, the Single Pull keeps the rifle lower and the bipod more compact.

For shooters who primarily work from prone and conventional competition positions, it is arguably the sweet spot of the CKYE-POD range.

Single-Handed Adjustment

One of the defining characteristics of the CKYE-POD is its ability to make:

Single-Handed Adjustments

This allows the shooter to manipulate the bipod while maintaining control of the rifle.

Benefits include:

✔ Faster positional setup

✔ Reduced unnecessary movement

✔ Easier adjustments under time pressure

✔ Better rifle control

✔ Rapid adaptation to uneven surfaces

When shooting a timed stage, being able to adjust the support system without completely breaking position can provide a significant advantage.

Three Splay Positions

The CKYE-POD GEN3 Single Pull provides three selectable leg widths:

Narrow

Mid

Wide

Changing the splay alters both the effective height and footprint of the bipod.

This allows the shooter to optimise the support depending on the position.

Narrow

Useful when space is limited or additional height is required.

Mid

Provides an excellent general-purpose balance between height and stability.

Wide

Creates a broad, low platform for maximum stability.

This adaptability is one of the reasons the CKYE-POD is so effective on complex PRS stages.

Up to 360° of Cant

The GEN3 Single Pull provides:

Up to 360° of Cant

giving the shooter an exceptional ability to adapt to uneven terrain, barricades and unconventional shooting positions.

Benefits include:

✔ Rapid rifle levelling

✔ Better adaptation to sloping terrain

✔ Improved positional flexibility

✔ Faster target acquisition

✔ Greater control from improvised supports

Instead of forcing the rifle into the terrain, the CKYE-POD allows the support system to adapt to the rifle.

Toolless Cant Tension Adjustment

Cant resistance can be adjusted:

Without Tools

The shooter can quickly tune the amount of resistance to personal preference.

Once established, the GEN3 system is designed to maintain that setting through extended use.

Benefits include:

✔ Fast adjustment

✔ Consistent feel

✔ No tools required

✔ Personalised resistance

✔ Reduced need for repeated adjustment

This is particularly useful for competition shooters who want their bipod to move predictably from stage to stage.

Locking Legs

A significant GEN3 refinement is the addition of:

Locking Legs in the Collapsed Position

This helps prevent the legs from unintentionally deploying while:

✔ Moving between stages

✔ Carrying the rifle

✔ Working around barricades

✔ Removing the rifle from a bag

✔ Transitioning between positions

When required, the legs can be rapidly released and deployed.

It’s a simple improvement that addresses one of the practical frustrations found in highly adjustable competition bipods.

Two Leg Positions

GEN3 simplifies the leg-position system to:

Stowed

or

Deployed

Rather than requiring the shooter to cycle through multiple intermediate leg angles, the system is focused around rapid engagement.

This contributes to the overall GEN3 philosophy:

Less manipulation. Less wasted time. Faster deployment.

Adjustable ARCA & Picatinny Throw Lever Head

One of the most important GEN3 improvements is MDT’s:

AP Throw Lever Head

The system is designed to fit both:

ARCA

and

Picatinny

rails.

The adjustable design accommodates both standard and non-standard rail dimensions, giving the shooter significantly greater mounting flexibility.

Three-Position Throw Lever

The AP Throw Lever provides three functional positions:

LOCK

Securely clamps the bipod to the rifle.

SLIDE

Allows rapid repositioning along the rail.

REMOVE

Allows the bipod to be quickly detached.

This is particularly useful on ARCA-equipped competition rifles where shooters may want to move the bipod forward or rearward depending on the stage or shooting position.

Built-In A.R.M.S. #17 Compatibility

The GEN3 platform incorporates:

A.R.M.S. #17 Compatibility

This provides access to a broad ecosystem of compatible mounting solutions.

If the standard MDT AP Throw Lever Head isn’t the preferred mounting solution, shooters can configure the CKYE-POD around compatible A.R.M.S. #17-style heads.

This significantly increases the long-term versatility of the platform.

More Rigid

A bipod can offer enormous adjustment capability, but none of that matters if the support itself isn’t stable.

MDT has therefore focused heavily on reducing:

✔ Play

✔ Rattle

✔ Unwanted movement

The GEN3 chassis is tighter and more rigid than its predecessor, creating a more consistent connection between the rifle and the ground.

Benefits include:

✔ More predictable recoil

✔ Better rifle tracking

✔ Improved shot consistency

✔ Greater confidence behind the rifle

✔ More stable positional shooting

The objective is simple: when the shot breaks, the rifle should drive consistently rather than moving unpredictably through the bipod.

Machined Tactile Controls

GEN3 features tactile texturing machined directly into:

✔ Legs

✔ Latches

✔ Knobs

✔ Controls

This provides a positive surface that won’t simply wear away like an applied grip treatment.

Benefits include:

✔ Better tactile feedback

✔ Easier manipulation

✔ Improved operation with gloves

✔ Faster control identification

✔ Long-term durability

When you’re operating the rifle by feel rather than sight, tactile differentiation becomes extremely useful.

Larger Knobs & Buttons

MDT has enlarged the primary control surfaces for GEN3.

Benefits include:

✔ Faster indexing

✔ Easier operation with gloves

✔ More positive engagement

✔ Better tactile feedback

✔ Reduced fumbling under pressure

Small ergonomic improvements can make a significant difference during a timed competition stage.

Spiked Feet

The CKYE-POD GEN3 Single Pull comes equipped with:

Spiked Feet

designed to provide positive traction across a wide range of terrain.

Ideal for:

✔ Dirt

✔ Gravel

✔ Timber

✔ Soft ground

✔ Natural terrain

✔ Barricade surfaces

The aggressive interface helps prevent unwanted movement when loading the bipod.

Replaceable Feet

The Single Pull GEN3 also accepts compatible replacement feet.

This allows the bipod to be configured for different surfaces and shooting environments.

For example, optional rubber feet can provide a less aggressive interface on hard or finished surfaces.

The Single Pull CKYE-POD GEN3 uses MDT’s Standard-size CKYE-POD feet, which are also compatible with Atlas-standard foot interfaces.

Easy Leg Removal & Maintenance

Competition equipment gets dirty.

Dust, mud, sand and debris can eventually work their way into moving components.

GEN3 addresses this with:

Easily Removable Legs

A leg can be removed, cleaned and reinstalled using a single Allen key.

Benefits include:

✔ Easy field maintenance

✔ Faster cleaning

✔ Reduced downtime

✔ Simple servicing

✔ No complicated disassembly

Instead of treating the bipod as a sealed assembly, MDT has designed GEN3 to be maintained by the shooter.

Precision-Machined Construction

The CKYE-POD GEN3 is manufactured using:

Anodised Aluminium

combined with:

Black Oxide + Stainless Steel Components

This construction provides an excellent combination of:

✔ Rigidity

✔ Corrosion resistance

✔ Strength

✔ Precision

✔ Long-term durability

The use of stainless steel pins and precision-machined components is designed to withstand extensive use in demanding competition and field environments.

Compact When Stowed

Despite its substantial adjustment capability, the Single Pull remains remarkably compact.

Stowed Dimensions

13.36″ L × 3.07″ W × 2.5″ H

Benefits include:

✔ Reduced snagging

✔ Easier rifle transport

✔ Cleaner rifle profile

✔ Better manoeuvrability

✔ Easier stage transitions

The short-leg design keeps the system close to the rifle rather than creating unnecessary bulk.

Weight

The CKYE-POD GEN3 Single Pull weighs:

1.4lb / 22oz

or approximately:

624g

This makes it considerably more substantial than an ultralight hunting bipod—but that isn’t what the CKYE-POD is trying to be.

The weight supports a platform designed around:

rigidity, adjustment range, positional versatility and competition performance.

For a dedicated PRS or precision rifle, those capabilities can be considerably more important than achieving minimum possible weight.

Single Pull or Double Pull?

Both versions share the advanced GEN3 architecture, but they serve slightly different shooting requirements.

Choose the Single Pull if:

✔ Most of your shooting is prone or from conventional barricades

✔ You want a compact competition bipod

✔ 15″ of maximum height is sufficient

✔ You want to minimise bulk

✔ You want the lowest-profile CKYE-POD configuration

✔ You prioritise speed and simplicity

✔ You don’t regularly need extremely tall positional support

Choose the Double Pull if:

✔ You frequently encounter highly unconventional positions

✔ You need substantially more height adjustment

✔ You shoot stages requiring kneeling or elevated support

✔ Maximum positional versatility is more important than compactness

✔ You’re prepared to carry additional size and weight for greater adjustment range

For many PRS shooters, the Single Pull is arguably the most balanced CKYE-POD configuration.

It provides the core versatility of the CKYE-POD system without carrying additional leg sections that may rarely be required.

GEN3 vs Previous CKYE-POD

The GEN3 isn’t simply a cosmetic revision.

MDT has focused on the areas competition shooters interact with constantly:

Improvement	GEN3 Advantage
Controls	Larger & More Tactile
Leg Retention	Locks When Stowed
Surface Grip	Machined Directly Into Components
Overall Profile	Slimmer
Rigidity	Increased
Play / Rattle	Reduced
Maintenance	Easier Leg Removal
Mounting	Adjustable ARCA/Picatinny Throw Lever
Mount Positions	Lock / Slide / Remove
Mount Ecosystem	A.R.M.S. #17 Compatible

The result is a CKYE-POD that should feel faster, tighter and more intuitive every time the shooter interacts with it.
